胭脂鸡是娘惹菜肴之一,鸡肉先以香料腌制,然后再炸至金黄,一般都是伴与喼汁一起吃。家里有几本食谱书都有胭脂鸡的做法,不过每本的做法都不同,过后我决定选了其中一个食谱来试。一些做法都是将鸡肉炸两次,确保鸡肉吃起来香脆,可是怕油的我就选择了用空气炸锅来炸。用空气炸锅炸起来的胭脂鸡一样可以皮脆肉嫩,最重要的是没那么油腻。由于时间关系我下午就将鸡肉炸好了,刚炸好时皮非常脆肉又多汁,非常美味,可是到了晚餐时间皮已经不脆了,虽然已冷了,不过鸡肉的味道还是很不错,腌得很入味。两个星期前我准备了个娘惹风味的晚餐,除了胭脂鸡外,我还准备了叁巴羊角豆。
今年年初时曾去了一趟马六甲参加夫家亲戚的婚宴,这是我第一次参加峇峇娘惹的婚宴,也是第一次看到峇峇娘惹传统的结婚服饰,现场很多女性来宾都穿着娘惹服饰,真的是让我大开眼界。那趟马六甲之旅除了见识到特别的婚宴外,也败了不少摆饰品回来。未去前就看到网友的竹篮照片,问了地方后就一直缠着老公一定要带我去,结果这一去就把我整年的quota给用完。从马六甲带回来的Bakul Siah已有一段时间了,等了这么久终于找到机会让它们亮亮相。
我只用了最简单的沾酱,李派林喼汁加酸柑。 一些食谱的沾酱很特别,除了喼汁和酸柑, 还会加入红辣椒丝、糖、酱油和芥末粉。 |
